Dowie sacked after only just over a year in charge.

 

Looking forward to the press tomorrow where no doubt every manager and ex-player under the sun will be telling us how poor a club Coventry are for not sticking with him and that their fans should get real and realise that they arent a big club.

I went once, late 80s, and spent the entire match getting pelted with god knows what from the Cov fans, and randomly laid into by the police. The entire escorted walk back to the train station was running warfare.

 

When we got back to Brum New Street, the Zulus were waiting for us and all hell broke out in the city centre. It was the longest continuous exposure to football hooliganism I ever experienced.

 

I know we're not supposed to revel in the misfortune of other clubs (hey, we're all supporters), but honestly, I can't really think of a single positive thing about Coventry City

.

 

Who are the zulus?

 

I remember when they (Coventry) delayed a kick off, I think it was against one of the Bristol clubs and they both played for a draw and the mackems were relegated by everton ( I think).  I would normally be over the moon about that but I just thought that it could have been Newcastle, cheating bastards and they got away with it.

 

Zulus = Zulu Warriors, Birmingham City's main firm.

 

Coventry lived a charmed existence for years, getting away with it at the death. I guess all the good luck is being repaid now with bad luck, all in one big lump.
